what's JTRSY Tokenized U.S. Treasuries?
JTRSY is a tokenized real-world asset (RWA) representing short-term U.S. Treasuries, developed on the Centrifuge protocol. It enables onchain exposure to low-risk, yield-bearing government securities through ERC-7540 compliant vaults, an extension of the ERC-4626 standard designed for asynchronous tokenized assets. Investors can deposit stablecoins into these vaults to receive JTRSY tokens, which are backed by underlying Treasury holdings managed by institutional partners like Anemoy Capital and Janus Henderson Advisors. The token integrates seamlessly into DeFi ecosystems across multiple chains, including Ethereum, Base, Avalanche, Solana, and Stellar, allowing for composability in lending markets, yield aggregators, and liquidity pools. Centrifuge's infrastructure handles tokenization, custody, and compliance, ensuring transparency and regulatory alignment while abstracting complexities for users seeking stable, onchain yield from traditional finance assets.
